Santa Cruz Tallboy LTc

Long-travel 29ers, once ridiculed for frames that weren’t quite stiff enough, keep improving, and Santa Cruz’s new Tallboy LTc is one of the best we’ve seen of this new generation. Built around a stiff, lightweight carbon frame with 135mm of travel, the bike tracked predictably down descents strewn with rocks and ripped through technical sections. More surprising, it flew up climbs and accelerated with snap on rolling singletrack.
